750mL bottle, undated shared by Chris on 3/26/16.
Large off-white head tops a deep orange-copper body with moderate clarity and retention.
Very nutty, barrel-influenced nose is full of wood and at the same time tons of actual merlot character. Vanilla, black pepper, alcohol and very poignant, fruity, red grape character. Not much in the way of saison and it would be hard to discern the style blindly.
The flavor is even moreso dominated by the merlot. Nutty tannin, dry wood and heavy, heavy merlot character gives little window to find any actual beer character before the palate is overwhelmed and fatigued. Bready malts and moderate sweetness with some light alcohol sharpness and heavy esters. Moderate to high carbonation. Nope.

750 ml Bottle. Amber color aroma is funky red grape, astringent oak, loads of grapes.
Medium oak, nice tingly mouthfeel. Way to much red wine, too much time in barrel. The finish is astringent. Not sure how long this was in the barrel but it should have been pulled sooner.

750 c&c from Wine & Cheese. Pours copper with a slight beigeish head. Aroma of red wine with some wood. Med body or so. Flavor is woody, red berry, slightly oxidized wood. It’s oak astringent. There is finally some earthy Belgian aspect coming forth, but the barrel parts are pretty dominate. Tell me it’s geographically Westvleteren and I’ll believe it. Good stuff. I’d call it a Flanders red/sour.
